Unparalleled Green Views and Magnificent Garden
From the inside, the home enjoys dominating lush leafy views -both toward the street, and out into the garden-on almost every level. The scenes are green from mid-April into October, then transmute through yellow and orange as days pass into late fall. A 60-old Beech tree rising from in the front of the house provides a layered veil of vegetation for the street side. In back, the block's interior courtyard is particularly open and there are numerous tall trees. The garden attending the house has an overstory of London Planes and a mature Gingko, and an understory including redbuds, Japanese maples, a snow drop, river birch, and witch hazel.
A 60'-long brick wall at the back of this garden area is 12' tall and draped in adult ivy. The garden's hardscape is an antique Bourgogne stone patio with mossy brick terraces beyond. Ivy beds are defined by low brick borders, and have ferns, hellebores, acuba, and rhododendrons. A wooden side wall is designed after Kyoto streetscapes.
